First seen Mar 27, 2026 · Last updated May 24, 2026 · Updated 8 times
Summary
This study looks at whether using a home breathing device (OPEP) and doing aerobic exercise can help people with moderate to severe COPD have fewer serious flare-ups and hospital visits. About 312 adults aged 40-80 will be split into four groups: standard care, OPEP alone, exercise alone, or both together. They will be followed for up to two years to see which approach works best.
